The Tyler Fratzke Memorial Fund has been set up to honor the life of Tyler
Michael Fratzke who was killed in a car accident in September of 2009.

As a young child Tyler was shy around strangers but his family always saw another
side of him. They saw his outgoing personality and his huge heart. They encouraged
him to be confident in who he was. As a family, the Fratzke's spent time with
their children camping, canoeing, dining with family and friends and volunteering
at Ronald McDonald House, The Dream Factory, Special Olympics and in their church
and schools.

By the time he was in middle school, Tyler's personality was visible to all.
A mission trip to Mexico in April of 2009 rounded him as an individual. He worked
in a poor village helping people who had very few things but tremendous faith.
He witnessed Christianity from their point of view and was forever changed.

It is Tyler's legacy and his family's dream to give other children the opportunity
to grow from their experiences in working with others and sharing our planet
with those who need our help. If your church or organization is planning a mission
trip and some families struggle to give their child the opportunity, the Tyler
Fratzke Memorial Fund may be able to help make it happen.
